# Win32 ports for BACnet
This directory contains a demo program that compiles with a Win32 compiler.
It was tested with the free MinGW32 MSYS2 GCC compiler
and the (free) Microsoft Visual Studio Community Edition
## Building with Makefile under MinGW32
Note: Building for 64-bit with MinGW64 requires extra runtimes,
whereas building for 32-bit as Win32 doesn't require any other
files for the EXE to work in any version of Windows.
* MSYS2 installation is (from powershell):
c:\> winget install --id=MSYS2.MSYS2 -e
* Start MSYS shell, and install MinGW32.
$ pacman -Syu mingw-w64-i686-toolchain
* Edit ~/.bashrc file and add:
alias make=mingw32-make.exe
* Exit MSYS.
* Start MSYS profile for MinGW32.
* Verify MSYS profile:
$ uname
MINGW32_NT-10.0-19045
* Verify GCC is targeting i686:
$ gcc -dumpmachine
i686-w64-mingw32
* Verify make is built for Windows32:
make --version
Built for Windows32
## Building and running with Microsoft Visual Studio
* Obtain the (free) Microsoft Visual Studio Community Edition, or use your professional version. Currently tested to MSVC 2022
* Open solution file ports/win32/Microsoft Visual Studio/bacnet-stack.sln
* Set startup project to be the desired application project, e.g. "server"
* In the active project properties, debugging, set command line to desired DeviceID
* In active project properties, debugging, set environment variables as appropriate, e.g. BACNET_IFACE=10.59.2.1 BACNET_IP_PORT=53004
* Compile & run
